GPtech from UKTS site has uploaded a new track rule for the Kerrs miniature railway part of the Angus route. Description below.

A custom track rule to remove the dependancy on Phorum Penninsula’s track rule, which should mean that only rolling stock and scenery assets from PP would still be missing; easily swapped with RW Tools and has less of an impact than missing infrastructure.
The pointwork has been relaid to properly render the check rails, which could cause slight issues with stock already placed on the track–more in the enclosed ReadMe.

  1. Hello Darren,
    I’ve installed the Aberdeen Angus route, but I’ve run into a little snag. I’ve gotten all the required downloads as stated in your list above. I’ve fired up the route with the first included scenario on the route and found that I have some missing equipment and/or reskins.

    Would it be possible for you to list the various Equipement/Repaints that are used in the scenarios so that I may track them down and install them??

    Thanks for your assistance.

    Rick.

    • Which scenario/s were you trying to load? Some are from here but a few are 3rd party developers who’ve made them and the readme documents may be on their pages somewhere.

  2. I haven’t checked them all, but I’m referring to the scenarios that downloaded with the route. I tried the first in the list, 6A65 Lafarge, run it through RW Tools and came up with this missing list:

    Kuju\RailSimulator\RailVehicles\Diesel\HST\CR_East_Coast\Class43\class43_fgw.bin
    S9BL\Class158Pack\RailVehicles\Diesel\Class158\SAL\DMSL\Class158_dmsl.bin
    S9BL\Class158Pack\RailVehicles\Diesel\Class158\SAL\DMSL\Class158_dmsl_nd.bin
    S9BL\Class158Pack\RailVehicles\Diesel\Class158\SAL\MSL\class158_msl.bin

    Have to head off to work, but I’ll check others later today.

    • Thanks for the quick reply Rick.
      Lafarge is one of John Walsh’s Scenarios. The 158 is from mullys website http://mullys.webs.com/

      here’ the list from the 3rd party page:- https://caledonianrailworks.wordpress.com/scenarios/3rd-party-scenarios-rosgar-others/

      Payware Required:

      RSC Class 66 V2 Freightliner
      Class 158 from Steam
      East Coast Mainline Kings Cross to Peterborough
      West Coast Mail line via shap (for the PCA Hoppers)
      Freeware Required:
      158 Saltaire Reskin from Mullys Webs.
      East Coast Mainline HST Branding from Railworkers.

      If you have any more missing reskins then fire them through and I’ll see if they can be tracked down. If you don’t catch me here then I’ll be on the Facebook group. https://www.facebook.com/groups/CaledonianRailworks/

      Thanks Rich and I hope you enjoy what’s on offer so far with the route. There will be an update sometime in the summer to Aberdeen possibly Dyce too if I get the assets on time, so hopefully I get that finished on time for everyone to have something to do during the holidays.

  3. Hi Darren,
    I’ve had a chance to check out some more scenarios. It seems like they are using a lot of outdated/unavailable equipment and skins. The Railworkers site mentioned previously is no longer up, so any references to those skins won’t be available.

    As I live in Canada and used to North American equipment, I have been researching British/European equipment in the last couple of weeks. A lot of it is unfamiliar to me, but I keep muddling away, trying to figure out what’s what!!

    For the Lafarge scenario, I’ve managed to find another EC skin and swapped it out using RW Tools and skins I’ve found in the sites listed in your posts. (Railworks Repaints, Mully, DPS). I haven’t had a chance to run the scenario yet, but I’ll get back to it later tonight.

    Have to run, time for work!!!
    TTYL!!

    • Thanks for narrowing down the issue Rick. I’ll have to see if the guy who runs that Railworkers site is down for good or just temporarily offline. I’ll also let John know his scenario might need a tweek to swap out the sins if they aren’t available anymore.

  4. Hi Darren
    I’ve swapped out what’s not available any more and I’ve run the included Lafarge scenario. Nice route BTW! ! I did notice some flying signals tho, after leaving the tunnel heading north to Montrose. I’ll check others and let you know how I make out.

    Like

    • A few folk hve had the floating signals at the tunnel and that’s fixed by reinstalling SECML from what I remember. I used that packs assets for around Dundee. Is the gantry on the Tay bridge missing as well or just the one at the tunnel?

    • Rosgar Scenarios are the team who compiled the 2 Scenarios you are asking about. You may want to join their facebook group or search the UKTS page to get part 2. As for the Abellio scotrail model. Thats not my reskin, but a few are kicking about on other groups. If you cant find it, its no big deal
      Just use RWTools to swap out for the standard scotrail model

  9. Hi, have downloaded the route and un zipped the RAR file which contains all the assets. However are the scenarios included anywhere or are they from 3rd party?

    Like

  10. Hi, have endeavoured to install this Route various times using the Alan Thompson Installer, opening up the RAR, ( which contains assets and No Content) and installing these directly into the Assets folder in Railworks. Clearing the cache file in TS and verifying the files. The result is the same every time there is no route in TS and I have all the additional requirements installed.

    Any advise and help on what I am doing incorrectly would be much appreciated.

    Regards

  12. You do need the various ukts files for the route to look the part. I feel 90% sure that you can get them on someone else’s website these days, if you dont have a ukts membership. I could be wrong though.

  16. Yes – you do need a few of the UK Train sim assets for it to work fully. I know there are other sites that you can download these asset packs from but I forgotten which sites they were. Certain FB groups such as Rosgar Scenarios will be able to help you out on that front
